In this article, we will introduce some BGM options when requesting live performances for your wedding. Listen to them and imagine the chapel where your wedding will take place, considering what kind of atmosphere you want to create.*
➀ Etupirika / Taro Hakase
"Etupirika" by Taro Hakase, used as the ending theme for "Kōsokudōri no Densetsu," might not come to mind immediately, but I believe you've heard it at least once before.
It seems like it would be a grand and moving beginning for the ceremony.
② Canon / Pachelbel
One of the classic songs frequently used at weddings, Pachelbel's Canon. This beloved piece crosses generations and borders, and it moves us every time we hear it.
If you're requesting live music, this is a must-have piece at some point♡
③ The Rose / Bette Midler
Another standard wedding song, "The Rose" by Bette Midler.
A soft song that would be lovely when performed as a solo with just a violin.
④ Go The Distance / Michael Bolton
The theme song from Disney's Hercules, "Go The Distance." The Japanese version sung by Fumiya Fujii is also well-known.
⑤ Far Away / Libera
"Far Away" by Libera, known for its angelic voices. This song was also featured in a Christmas commercial for Universal Studios Japan, making it a great choice for a Christmas wedding.
This is the Universal CM♡
⑥ Salut d'Amour / Edward Elgar
The charmingly light atmosphere of Edward Elgar's "Salut d'Amour." This piece was composed as a gift to Elgar's piano student, Caroline Alice Roberts, to commemorate their engagement♡
I think solos with flute or harp would also be wonderful*
⑦ COSMOS / Aquamarine
The famous choral piece "COSMOS" by Aquamarine. Many might have sung it during elementary or middle school.
Its flowing melody seems perfect for garden weddings too♡
Live Performance at the Ceremony is Wonderful.
We introduced BGM options for live performances in the chapel.
Live performances at weddings typically feature organists, violinists, flutists, oboists, and more.
The choice of songs may vary depending on the instruments and number of performers requested, so consider what kind of ceremony you want while selecting your BGM.*
